GLOW DANCE TIME CHANGED:
Due to the threat of severe weather later tonight, we have decided to move our dance up one hour from 5pm-7pm. 8th graders need to be dropped off and picked up on the 8th grade side or east side of the building under the covered walkway and 9th graders need to be dropped off and picked up on the west side of the building.


As apart of our CKH activities, RJHS, as a school community, has challenged ourselves to make this chain of affirmations stretch around the ENTIRE building of RJHS! Staff and students can add to this everyday to help meet the challenge. We are spreading the positivity!
Stay tuned for the updates on our progress!
